http://www.prepaid-law.com by Chaitanya Lay and Harry Gopaul providing information to allow people to make informed decisions about Pre PaidLegal, not only as providers of Pre Paid Legal services they have found pre paid legal to come to rely on it to fit all their Legal needs. However while not attempting to sell you a program that is not right for you, Chaitanya and Harry will assist you in locating the right pre paid legal service plan for you in order for you to get the legal coverage that fits into your needs.
Chaitanya and Harry believe in providing excellent service in helping people get the legal help they need.
Be sure to visit their website, http://www.prepaid-law.com to learn more.
So is Pre-paid Legal Services the real deal when it comes to running your own business and making a fortune? You are probably considering it, and have heard a lot about the benefits. Are you hoping that this company holds the key to your dreams? How can you know for sure if Pre-Paid Legal Services is for real before you dedicate your precious time and energy to it? Get the facts before you go any further.
The Background
Pre-Paid Legal Services was founded when Harland Stonecipher was involved in a serious auto accident in 1969. In spite of the fact that he was not at fault, his expenses piled up quickly, while he attempted to have his medical bills taken care of by the insurance company. This inspired Harland to come up with the idea of a kind of "legal medical insurance" called Pre-Paid Legal Services.
What Is It Exactly?
Today a network of more than 50 independent law firms across the U.S. and Canada is working to provide Pre-Paid Legal Services for all of the people who are members of this great business. The plans provide for legal service benefits including: unlimited attorney consultation, letter writing, document preparation and review, will preparation, traffic violation defense, automobile-related criminal charges defense, and a general trial defense.
In addition Pre-Paid Legal Services markets identity theft protection and monitoring, and restoration products. The company is traded on the New York Stock Exchange, and is a member of the S & PSmall Cap index, and the S&P 1500Super Comp index. On top of all of these services, prepaid legal provides the option for its members to earn a residual income for every person they sign up.
Points to Consider
The product and the idea are truly unique, and will always be a need for the services. The great thing about Pre-Paid Legal Services is that even if you are not interested in the business opportunity, the product is a great buy. This alone eliminates the majority of the problems involved in these types of businesses.
This is honestly one of the most credible businesses out there. As a business opportunity, there may be better options to consider. The commissions are very small and you may have to work for a very long time marketing your business before you actually make any serious money doing so.
Pre-Paid Legal is a great company, and it is highly recommended that anyone who needs any kind of legal services pay the thirty dollars a month. When it comes to business opportunities you need to evaluate what kind of earning potential you're looking for in a business. The best home businesses of today have amazing potential for quickly replacing income while simultaneously building a strong residual income stream to free you from the working world. All of this can even be done with systems that are 97% automated, allowing you to put in as little as 10 hours per week for a six figure income.

In this episode of Konica MInolta Legal TV, Marco Maggio, Director of the U.S. Legal Practice at All CoveredIT Services from Konica Minolta, discusses the difference between a managed service provider and a legal integrator.
A managed service provider performs and important function by assuming responsibility for a law firm's IT infrastructure. However, the opinion of the All Covered Legal Practice, is that an MSP falls short in meeting what a law firm's needs can be. If you are to truly leverage industry-specific enabling technology to focus on the practice of law, as opposed to managing multiple vendor relationships, you simply need more support than what an MSP can provide. There is a need for specialized legal expertise.
A legal integrator can do much more than set up a basic IT infrastructure along with the hardware, because it understands the inter-dependence and volatility of a law firm's workflows in order to help the firm design, plan, implement the appropriate legal technology, and operate safely, efficiently and securely.
As a legal integrator, All Covered prides ourselves in the knowledge and experience we bring to our customers.

At ALLIED DOCUMENT SERVICES, we strive to help you the consumer deal with your legal matters in the least stressful, most professional and dignified way. At some point in our lives we all have some sort of Legal matter come up that we need to handle fast and efficiently. We at ALLIED DOCUMENT SERVICES realize the need for speedy accurate form preparation. We will deliver the initial documents for most cases within 24 hours.

Practice of law

In its most general sense, the practice of law involves giving legal advice to clients, drafting legal documents for clients, and representing clients in legal negotiations and court proceedings such as lawsuits, and is applied to the professional services of a lawyer or attorney at law, barrister, solicitor, or civil law notary. However, there is a substantial amount of overlap between the practice of law and various other professions where clients are represented by agents. These professions include real estate, banking, accounting, and insurance. Moreover, a growing number of legal document assistants (LDAs) are offering services which have traditionally been offered only by lawyers and their employee paralegals. Many documents may now be created by computer-assisted drafting libraries, where the clients are asked a series of questions posed by the software in order to construct the legal documents.

Legal expenses insurance

Legal expenses insurance (LEI), also known as legal protection insurance (LPI) or simply legal insurance, is a type of insurance which covers policyholders against the potential costs of legal action brought by or against the policyholder. The concept originated around 1911 as a result of a fatal crash at the famous Le Mans race during which some spectators lost their lives and others were severely injured. When the victims or their families claimed damages from the insurers of the organizers, their claims were repudiated. They then all contributed to a pool which was used to fund collective action against the insurers. They were successful. This gave rise to the first LEI policy being developed in France. Not long after that, a motoring club in Germany called the "Deutsche Automobil Sportiff" (DAS) increased membership contributions to create a similar pool to pay for the defence of its members charged with traffic related offences. Members of the general public then enquired about joining the scheme. That is when the idea of an insurance available to the general public became firmly established. At present, the DAS of Germany is still the largest legal expenses insurer in the world. It is estimated that they write approximately 50% of LEI business worldwide. Then follows ARAG, also a German insurer. It is estimated that they write approximately 30% of global business.

Noun

A noun (from Latinnōmen, literally meaning "name") is a word that functions as the name of some specific thing or set of things, such as living creatures, objects, places, actions, qualities, states of existence, or ideas.Linguistically, a noun is a member of a large, openpart of speech whose members can occur as the main word in the subject of a clause, the object of a verb, or the object of a preposition.

Lexical categories (parts of speech) are defined in terms of the ways in which their members combine with other kinds of expressions. The syntactic rules for nouns differ from language to language. In English, nouns are those words which can occur with articles and attributive adjectives and can function as the head of a noun phrase.

History

Word classes (parts of speech) were described by Sanskrit grammarians from at least the 5th century BC. In Yāska's Nirukta, the noun (nāma) is one of the four main categories of words defined.

LegalShield

LegalShield is an American corporation that sells legal service products through direct sales and multi-level marketing in the United States and Canada. The company was originally founded August 8, 1972 as the Sportsman's Motor Club. In 1976 it was incorporated as Pre-Paid Legal Services, Inc., and made its initial public offering in 1984. Pre-Paid Legal Services, Inc. went from being traded on the New York Stock Exchange back to a private company in 2011 when it was acquired by MidOcean Partners for $650 Million and subsequently changed its name to LegalShield.

Company description

LegalShield develops and markets pre-paid legal service plans through a network of more than 6,900 independent provider attorneys across the U.S. and Canada. The Company also markets an identity theft monitoring and restoration services through its partnership with Kroll Inc.. The company's service plans are sold through its business-to-business channel (B-2-B), its employee benefits division, and also through its multi-level marketing division. Products are also sold as an employee benefit through payroll deduction. The company has legal service plans for small businesses as well as GoSmallBiz plans advertised with NFL Hall of Fame player Fran Tarkenton as spokesman.

IT professionals sometimes differentiate between service providers by categorizing them as type I, II, or III.
The three service types are recognized by the IT industry although specifically defined by ITIL and the US Telecommunications Act of 1996

Type I: internal service provider

Type II: shared service provider

Type III: external service provider

Type III SPs provide IT services to external customers and subsequently can be referred to as external service providers (ESPs) which range from a full IT organization/service outsource via managed services or MSPs (managed service providers) to limited product feature delivery via ASPs (application service providers).

Why Would AnyoneNeedPre-Paid Legal?
Harland C. Stonecipher discovered a need for a different kind of insurance that would be able to handle the legalities of life. Harland was involved in a serious car accident and ran into monetary problems when the expenses from the accident began to accumulate. It was then that Harland decided that there needed to be some kind of legal insurance for those who cannot afford legal consultation and representation. Many people in the world today have been in the same position as Harland C. Stonecipher before he founded this company. This is why Pre-Paid Legal has been serving North America since 1972.
With such a useful service that has been around for 37 years, why doesn't everyone use Pre-Paid Legal? After discussing this with a member of Pre-Paid Legal, I was told that there were a few reasons. First off, many people in society today are intimidated by lawyers. Because there is so much "jargon" in the legal industry, no one feels that they can really be sure that they understand how the legal system works. Because of this, many lawyers get the stigma that they can often change the "rules" in a legal situation whether it be right or wrong. Which is why there are many distasteful stereotypes about lawyers being dishonest and unethical. Another reason why many people are skeptical to the notion of having legal expertise available to them is because they think that it would be too expensive. Pre-Paid Legal is designed to be affordable to everyone from all walks of life. Not only is the member of Pre-Paid Legal covered, but their family is covered as well.
What Are The Benefits of having Pre Paid Legal in One's Corner?
There are many times in life when certain issues arise in one's lifetimes where one could use some kind of legal expertise. Pre-Paid Legal benefits include five primary legal areas of coverage: Preventive Legal Services, Motor Vehicle Legal Services, Trial Defensive Services, Rederal Tax Audit Legal Services, and any other exceptional legal service that one may need. There is also a Will Preparation Service that offers a annual updates of one's will and testament.
Is Pre Paid Legal Really Credible?
Pre Paid Legal has a connection with over 50 independent law firms in the United States and Canada that are ready to lend their legal prowess to anyone who owns a membership. Pre Paid Legal stock is traded on the NYSE (New York Stock Exchange) as PPD. It is also a member of the S&P 1500Super Comp index and the S & PSmall Cap index. This is a truly revolutionary and unique service, because no one really knows when they will need a lawyer. I believe that is the product that can give one's family a legal piece of mind.

So is Pre-paid Legal Services the real deal when it comes to running your own business and making a fortune? You are probably considering it, and have heard a lot about the benefits. Are you hoping that this company holds the key to your dreams? How can you know for sure if Pre-Paid Legal Services is for real before you dedicate your precious time and energy to it? Get the facts before you go any further.
The Background
Pre-Paid Legal Services was founded when Harland Stonecipher was involved in a serious auto accident in 1969. In spite of the fact that he was not at fault, his expenses piled up quickly, while he attempted to have his medical bills taken care of by the insurance company. This inspired Harland to come up with the idea of a kind of "legal medical insurance" called Pre-Paid Legal Services.
What Is It Exactly?
Today a network of more than 50 independent law firms across the U.S. and Canada is working to provide Pre-Paid Legal Services for all of the people who are members of this great business. The plans provide for legal service benefits including: unlimited attorney consultation, letter writing, document preparation and review, will preparation, traffic violation defense, automobile-related criminal charges defense, and a general trial defense.
In addition Pre-Paid Legal Services markets identity theft protection and monitoring, and restoration products. The company is traded on the New York Stock Exchange, and is a member of the S & PSmall Cap index, and the S&P 1500Super Comp index. On top of all of these services, prepaid legal provides the option for its members to earn a residual income for every person they sign up.
Points to Consider
The product and the idea are truly unique, and will always be a need for the services. The great thing about Pre-Paid Legal Services is that even if you are not interested in the business opportunity, the product is a great buy. This alone eliminates the majority of the problems involved in these types of businesses.
This is honestly one of the most credible businesses out there. As a business opportunity, there may be better options to consider. The commissions are very small and you may have to work for a very long time marketing your business before you actually make any serious money doing so.
Pre-Paid Legal is a great company, and it is highly recommended that anyone who needs any kind of legal services pay the thirty dollars a month. When it comes to business opportunities you need to evaluate what kind of earning potential you're looking for in a business. The best home businesses of today have amazing potential for quickly replacing income while simultaneously building a strong residual income stream to free you from the working world. All of this can even be done with systems that are 97% automated, allowing you to put in as little as 10 hours per week for a six figure income.

In this episode of Konica MInolta Legal TV, Marco Maggio, Director of the U.S. Legal Practice at All CoveredIT Services from Konica Minolta, discusses the difference between a managed service provider and a legal integrator.
A managed service provider performs and important function by assuming responsibility for a law firm's IT infrastructure. However, the opinion of the All Covered Legal Practice, is that an MSP falls short in meeting what a law firm's needs can be. If you are to truly leverage industry-specific enabling technology to focus on the practice of law, as opposed to managing multiple vendor relationships, you simply need more support than what an MSP can provide. There is a need for specialized legal expertise.
A legal integrator can do much more than set up a basic IT infrastructure along with the hardware, because it understands the inter-dependence and volatility of a law firm's workflows in order to help the firm design, plan, implement the appropriate legal technology, and operate safely, efficiently and securely.
As a legal integrator, All Covered prides ourselves in the knowledge and experience we bring to our customers.

Why Would AnyoneNeedPre-Paid Legal?
Harland C. Stonecipher discovered a need for a different kind of insurance that would be able to handle the legalities of life. Harland was involved in a serious car accident and ran into monetary problems when the expenses from the accident began to accumulate. It was then that Harland decided that there needed to be some kind of legal insurance for those who cannot afford legal consultation and representation. Many people in the world today have been in the same position as Harland C. Stonecipher before he founded this company. This is why Pre-Paid Legal has been serving North America since 1972.
With such a useful service that has been around for 37 years, why doesn't everyone use Pre-Paid Legal? After discussing this with a member of Pre-Paid Legal, I was told that there were a few reasons. First off, many people in society today are intimidated by lawyers. Because there is so much "jargon" in the legal industry, no one feels that they can really be sure that they understand how the legal system works. Because of this, many lawyers get the stigma that they can often change the "rules" in a legal situation whether it be right or wrong. Which is why there are many distasteful stereotypes about lawyers being dishonest and unethical. Another reason why many people are skeptical to the notion of having legal expertise available to them is because they think that it would be too expensive. Pre-Paid Legal is designed to be affordable to everyone from all walks of life. Not only is the member of Pre-Paid Legal covered, but their family is covered as well.
What Are The Benefits of having Pre Paid Legal in One's Corner?
There are many times in life when certain issues arise in one's lifetimes where one could use some kind of legal expertise. Pre-Paid Legal benefits include five primary legal areas of coverage: Preventive Legal Services, Motor Vehicle Legal Services, Trial Defensive Services, Rederal Tax Audit Legal Services, and any other exceptional legal service that one may need. There is also a Will Preparation Service that offers a annual updates of one's will and testament.
Is Pre Paid Legal Really Credible?
Pre Paid Legal has a connection with over 50 independent law firms in the United States and Canada that are ready to lend their legal prowess to anyone who owns a membership. Pre Paid Legal stock is traded on the NYSE (New York Stock Exchange) as PPD. It is also a member of the S&P 1500Super Comp index and the S & PSmall Cap index. This is a truly revolutionary and unique service, because no one really knows when they will need a lawyer. I believe that is the product that can give one's family a legal piece of mind.

Technology Tools To Enhance Legal Services for Limited English Proficiency

Sound Advice: The Community Listening Project

By 2013, approximately 228,000 people in the District of Columbia—that is about one in every three people lives at or below 200 percent of the federal poverty level. We are talking about a single mother supporting two children on just $40,000 a year or a 75-year-old grandfather living on just under $25,000 a year. And the gap between people with serious money and no money is growing.
Too often the people who are most affected by programs to address poverty are not really heard. A project sponsored by the Consortium of Legal Services Providers sought to change that by asking over 700 low-income DC residents about their problems. What people said about their lives and the problems they face has just been released in a new report called “The CommunityListeningProject.” Here with me to ...

In the legal services industry, automation and the power of machine learning has been transforming legal practice, by automating tasks that had previously been highly labour intensive and typically undertaken by junior lawyers, such as document management, legal discovery and due diligence.

We keep hearing "artificial intelligence (AI) won't take the jobs of lawyers." But the growing field of AI is bound to affect the legal industry in other ways. The tech-enabled legal service company Axiom recently announced their own AI and, according to Paul Carr, president of global strategic projects, this technology and AI in general could be transformative for the legal industry. In this episode of Law Technology Now, host Bob Ambrogi talks to Paul Carr about how Axiom uses technology, including AI, to modernize legal services and streamline processes which enables them to better serve their clients. They also discusses how to broach the topic of using AI and other newer technology with their corporate clients.

Technology Tools To Enhance Legal Services for Limited English Proficiency

6/25/2014 - In the webinar TechnologyTools to Enhance Legal Services for Limited English Proficiency, four panelists discuss technology tools that are being incorporated by legal service providers and courts, why technology is important in this context, and the challenges of creating and maintaining multi-lingual tech tools.
Panelists:
• KathyDaniels, IT Administrator with Statewide Legal Services in Connecticut
• Rochelle Klempner, Chief Counsel, NYSCourtsAccess to JusticeProgram
• Mike Monahan, Director of State Bar of GA/GLSP Pro BonoProject
• Sandra Sandoval, FieldSupportCoordinator, Immigration Advocates Network
• Mirenda Watkins, LawHelp Interactive Program Coordinator, Pro Bono Net (moderator)
*LEP: LimitedEnglish Proficiency-individuals who don't speak English as their primary language.
How can technology help?
• assess LEP needs
• design user-centered services
• deliver and expand language access services
• provide crucial resources to LEP community
• offer substantive legal information
• disseminate information about the legal system and language access rights
Challenges of maintaining multi-lingual forms and resources
Panelist: Rochelle Klempner
When you make changes to any multi-lingual forms or resources, there can be many implications. Affected areas can include:
1) -other forms & instructions
2) -written self-help materials
3) -training materials
4) -videos
5) -posters
6) -data storage
7) -resources in other languages
Tips to help streamline the process of editing documents and ensuring all your materials are consistent with any changes made:
1) When something is changed, look for affected resources on the web first
2) Search the website for common terms
3) Put English clues in the comments lines in the html of other language pages to make them easier to find
4) Post all pdfs online in one location only once
5) Use the same interpreter for all translations to keep the same vernacular if things are changed
6) Use someone for audio work that is accessible for future updates
7) Use a cloud based internal site for employee shared access that points to the same pdfs for the public
8) Don't have a tech person oversee the job
9) Make sure you pass on institutional knowledge
10) Remember to tell all players involved when changes are made.

Sound Advice: The Community Listening Project

By 2013, approximately 228,000 people in the District of Columbia—that is about one in every three people lives at or below 200 percent of the federal poverty level. We are talking about a single mother supporting two children on just $40,000 a year or a 75-year-old grandfather living on just under $25,000 a year. And the gap between people with serious money and no money is growing.
Too often the people who are most affected by programs to address poverty are not really heard. A project sponsored by the Consortium of Legal Services Providers sought to change that by asking over 700 low-income DC residents about their problems. What people said about their lives and the problems they face has just been released in a new report called “The CommunityListeningProject.” Here with me to talk about understanding the high cost of being poor in the District of Columbia are: Patty Mullahy Fugere, the Executive Director of the Legal Clinic for the Homeless; Faith Mullen, AssistantClinical Professor at The Catholic University of America, one of the authors of the report; and Kristi Mathews, Grass Roots Advocacy Coordinator at the Legal Clinic for the Homeless

This case study video focuses on Anglo American’s Head of Legal, Kevin Lester, of their South African operations, who speaks to Nicola Stott, Global Managing Director of Exigent. During this video, he talks about how he came on board and changed the legal department to provide added value. He called it: 'Change the Way of Thinking'. By including partnering with Exigent, Lester, over six years, reduced Anglo's costs by more than 50% (not adjusted for inflation).
In this video case study interview, Kevin covers:
• Why Anglo American needed to restructure the whole of their legal set up and offering in its South African organization.
• The challenge of bringing multiple legal departments together to deliver a cohesive service.
• Which is best, evolution vs revolution; and how to introduce an LPO into an organization.
• How they looked at themselves as an internal service provider and developed a new approach.
• How he reduced the number of their external legal providers and extracted better value from the remaining providers. With his panel of new law firms, how he went about defining a set of standards to use on their deliveries to Anglo American. What they were to put on their invoice; what they were able to bill for and a stronger agreement contract.
• How he went about analyzing their work for cost-efficiency; getting the right people, with the right skills, doing the right work.
• Changing processes to suit the type of work needed. Sharing actions between partners and law firms more effectively.
• Why technology is not the only solution.

The OxfordInternetInstitute is excited to welcome ProfessorKaren Yeung and Professor Timothy Endicott for the OII Colloquia talk "What's wrong with using machine learning to personalise law?". The event is followed by a short drinks reception.
In the legal services industry, automation and the power of machine learning has been transforming legal practice, by automating tasks that had previously been highly labour intensive and typically undertaken by junior lawyers, such as document management, legal discovery and due diligence. Although there is increasing concern about how these digital transformations will affect the job market for lawyers, and for legal services more generally, less attention has been given to the way in which machine learning might be used to ‘personalise’ the law. In particular, several legal scholars claim that the data-driven techniques used by commercial providers such as Amazon and Google to personalise the user’s experience (whether in the provision of shopping recommendations or responses to search queries) could also be used to ‘personalise’ the law. In this paper, we consider the claims made by those who believe that such a move would enhance the administration of contemporary legal systems. In so doing, we offer our preliminary thoughts, suggesting that these proposals are not merely morally problematic, but – if implemented – might fundamentally threaten the rule of law upon which the legitimacy of contemporary legal systems rests.

Her research expertise lies in the regulation and governance of, and through, emerging technologies, with her more recent and on-going work focusing on the legal, ethical, social and democratic implications of a suite of technologies associated with automation and the ‘computational turn’, including big data analytics, artificial intelligence (including various forms of machine learning), distributed ledgers (including blockchain) and robotics. Her work has been at the
forefront of nurturing ‘law, regulation and technology’ as a sub-field of legal and interdisciplinary scholarship. She is keen to foster collaboration between academics and policy-makers across various disciplines concerned with examining the social, legal, democratic and ethical implications of technological development, and in seeking to promote informed, reflective technology policy making and implementation.

Triage and Expert Systems in Legal Aid: New Tools to Assist People In Need and The Advocates that Serve
By Probono Net 7/23/2014
This webinar highlights new tools and approaches that aid advocates with legal screening, triage and analysis activities, and help litigants navigate unfamiliar legal processes. We'll hear from panelists working on cutting edge projects in the nonprofit legal sector, how expert systems can enhance service delivery and support community partnerships, and tools and techniques that focus on balancing considerations rather than applying rules. Join us to hear about what's new - and what's next - in this area
Panelists:
Zach Hutchinson, Student and Research Assistant, Georgetown University Law CenterAdam Friedl, Program and Special Initiatives Manager at Pro Bono NetDonnaDougherty, Attorney-in-Charge at JASA/Legal Services for the Elderly in QueensMarc Lauritsen, President, CapstonePracticeSystemsModerator:
Liz Keith, Program Director, Pro Bono Net
How can new technologies
1. Aid advocates with legal screening, triage, and analysis
2. Help litigants navigate unfamiliar processes
3. Support community partnerships to expand access to assistance
CommunityApproaches
• Neota logic
• Drools engine
• HotDocs and A2J author guided interviews

Panelist Zach Hutchinson Discusses three triage and expert systems through Georgetown Law's GULC App Program
The program partners with Pro Bono organizations and, in teams of 3-4 students, creates applications to help with a legal question or problem.
3 types of applications
• Self-help tools
• Intake/clinic assistance
• Advocacy/adjunctive
Zach presents three demos:
1. OAH benefits appeals coach: Serves as a coach to users preparing for unemployment benefit hearings at the D.C.Office of Administrative Hearings, and provides targeted guidance regarding the evidence users should present.
2. EmploymentJustice Center (EJC) Wage theft advisor: helps low income workers with wage theft claims i.e. minimum wage or overtime issues. Self-help or clinical use
3. MIDAS (MilitaryImpact of Discharge Assessment System): Helps determine veteran benefit eligibility especially with confusing discharge situations.
Benefits of using these programs: they conditionally ask questions so you don't waste time determining eligibility, and they produce reports for internal use or that can be emailed to clients
Panelists Donna Dougherty and Adam Friedl Discuss the Debt and Eviction Navigator, The DEN and how JASA empowered social workers to conduct legal screenings while visiting homebound elderly clients.
This tool is designed to:
o Help you figure out if you have a landlord-tenant issue or a consumer debt issue that should be addressed
o Provide you with resources so you can learn more about the issue and steps you can take yourself
o Connect you with legal service providers who may be able to help you take action
Future Goals:
- Incorporate e-filing
- Broaden subject areas
- Generate statistical data, analysis, and reports.
Presenter Mark Lauritsen presents choiceboxing for helping people make choices which involve competing values and perspectives.
When making decisions that involve many options, considerations, varying degrees of importance, and disagreements about relative importance, creating a choicebox can break down the complexity and help make complicated decisions.

How Axiom is Using AI to Modernize Legal Services

We keep hearing "artificial intelligence (AI) won't take the jobs of lawyers." But the growing field of AI is bound to affect the legal industry in other ways. The tech-enabled legal service company Axiom recently announced their own AI and, according to Paul Carr, president of global strategic projects, this technology and AI in general could be transformative for the legal industry. In this episode of Law Technology Now, host Bob Ambrogi talks to Paul Carr about how Axiom uses technology, including AI, to modernize legal services and streamline processes which enables them to better serve their clients. They also discusses how to broach the topic of using AI and other newer technology with their corporate clients.
Paul Carr is the president of global strategic projects at Axiom. Axiom is the leading alternative legal services provider.

http://www.prepaid-law.com by Chaitanya Lay and Harry Gopaul providing information to allow people to make informed decisions about Pre PaidLegal, not only as providers of Pre Paid Legal services they have found pre paid legal to come to rely on it to fit all their Legal needs. However while not attempting to sell you a program that is not right for you, Chaitanya and Harry will assist you in locating the right pre paid legal service plan for you in order for you to get the legal coverage that fits into your needs.
Chaitanya and Harry believe in providing excellent service in helping people get the legal help they need.
Be sure to visit their website, http://www.prepaid-law.com to learn more.
So is Pre-paid Legal Services the real deal when it comes to running your own business and making a fortune? You are probably considering it, and have heard a lot about the benefits. Are you hoping that this company holds the key to your dreams? How can you know for sure if Pre-Paid Legal Services is for real before you dedicate your precious time and energy to it? Get the facts before you go any further.
The Background
Pre-Paid Legal Services was founded when Harland Stonecipher was involved in a serious auto accident in 1969. In spite of the fact that he was not at fault, his expenses piled up quickly, while he attempted to have his medical bills taken care of by the insurance company. This inspired Harland to come up with the idea of a kind of "legal medical insurance" called Pre-Paid Legal Services.
What Is It Exactly?
Today a network of more than 50 independent law firms across the U.S. and Canada is working to provide Pre-Paid Legal Services for all of the people who are members of this great business. The plans provide for legal service benefits including: unlimited attorney consultation, letter writing, document preparation and review, will preparation, traffic violation defense, automobile-related criminal charges defense, and a general trial defense.
In addition Pre-Paid Legal Services markets identity theft protection and monitoring, and restoration products. The company is traded on the New York Stock Exchange, and is a member of the S & PSmall Cap index, and the S&P 1500Super Comp index. On top of all of these services, prepaid legal provides the option for its members to earn a residual income for every person they sign up.
Points to Consider
The product and the idea are truly unique, and will always be a need for the services. The great thing about Pre-Paid Legal Services is that even if you are not interested in the business opportunity, the product is a great buy. This alone eliminates the majority of the problems involved in these types of businesses.
This is honestly one of the most credible businesses out there. As a business opportunity, there may be better options to consider. The commissions are very small and you may have to work for a very long time marketing your business before you actually make any serious money doing so.
Pre-Paid Legal is a great company, and it is highly recommended that anyone who needs any kind of legal services pay the thirty dollars a month. When it comes to business opportunities you need to evaluate what kind of earning potential you're looking for in a business. The best home businesses of today have amazing potential for quickly replacing income while simultaneously building a strong residual income stream to free you from the working world. All of this can even be done with systems that are 97% automated, allowing you to put in as little as 10 hours per week for a six figure income.

Turbulent Market for Legal Services Forces Law Firms to Innovate

April 16 (Bloomberg Law) -- Markus Hartung, director of the Bucerius Center on the Legal Profession, talks to Bloomberg Law's Lee Pacchia about the current state of the legal profession and the importance of innovation for legal service providers. Markus also discusses a new approach for multinational corporations purchasing legal services.

In this episode of Konica MInolta Legal TV, Marco Maggio, Director of the U.S. Legal Practice at All CoveredIT Services from Konica Minolta, discusses the difference between a managed service provider and a legal integrator.
A managed service provider performs and important function by assuming responsibility for a law firm's IT infrastructure. However, the opinion of the All Covered Legal Practice, is that an MSP falls short in meeting what a law firm's needs can be. If you are to truly leverage industry-specific enabling technology to focus on the practice of law, as opposed to managing multiple vendor relationships, you simply need more support than what an MSP can provide. There is a need for specialized legal expertise.
A legal integrator can do much more than set up a basic IT infrastructure along with the hardware, because it understands the inter-dependence and volatility of a law firm's workflows in order to help the firm design, plan, implement the appropriate legal technology, and operate safely, efficiently and securely.
As a legal integrator, All Covered prides ourselves in the knowledge and experience we bring to our customers.

Why Would AnyoneNeedPre-Paid Legal?
Harland C. Stonecipher discovered a need for a different kind of insurance that would be able to handle the legalities of life. Harland was involved in a serious car accident and ran into monetary problems when the expenses from the accident began to accumulate. It was then that Harland decided that there needed to be some kind of legal insurance for those who cannot afford legal consultation and representation. Many people in the world today have been in the same position as Harland C. Stonecipher before he founded this company. This is why Pre-Paid Legal has been serving North America since 1972.
With such a useful service that has been around for 37 years, why doesn't everyone use Pre-Paid Legal? After discussing this with a member of Pre-Paid Legal, I was told that there were a few reasons. First off, many people in society today are intimidated by lawyers. Because there is so much "jargon" in the legal industry, no one feels that they can really be sure that they understand how the legal system works. Because of this, many lawyers get the stigma that they can often change the "rules" in a legal situation whether it be right or wrong. Which is why there are many distasteful stereotypes about lawyers being dishonest and unethical. Another reason why many people are skeptical to the notion of having legal expertise available to them is because they think that it would be too expensive. Pre-Paid Legal is designed to be affordable to everyone from all walks of life. Not only is the member of Pre-Paid Legal covered, but their family is covered as well.
What Are The Benefits of having Pre Paid Legal in One's Corner?
There are many times in life when certain issues arise in one's lifetimes where one could use some kind of legal expertise. Pre-Paid Legal benefits include five primary legal areas of coverage: Preventive Legal Services, Motor Vehicle Legal Services, Trial Defensive Services, Rederal Tax Audit Legal Services, and any other exceptional legal service that one may need. There is also a Will Preparation Service that offers a annual updates of one's will and testament.
Is Pre Paid Legal Really Credible?
Pre Paid Legal has a connection with over 50 independent law firms in the United States and Canada that are ready to lend their legal prowess to anyone who owns a membership. Pre Paid Legal stock is traded on the NYSE (New York Stock Exchange) as PPD. It is also a member of the S&P 1500Super Comp index and the S & PSmall Cap index. This is a truly revolutionary and unique service, because no one really knows when they will need a lawyer. I believe that is the product that can give one's family a legal piece of mind.

• provide crucial resources to LEP community
• offer substantive legal information
• disseminate information about the legal system and language access rights
Challenges of maintaining multi-lingual forms and resources
Panelist: Rochelle Klempner
When you make changes to any multi-lingual forms or resources, there can be many implications. Affected areas can include:
1) -other forms & instructions
2) -written self-help materials
3) -training materials
4) -videos
5) -posters
6) -data storage
7) -resources in other languages
Tips to help streamline the process of editing documents and ensuring all your materials are consistent with any changes made:
1) When something is changed, look for affected resources on the web first
2) Search the website for common terms
3) Put English clues in the comments lines in the html of other language pages to make them easier to find
4) Post all pdfs online in one location only once
5) Use the same interpreter for all translations to keep the same vernacular if things are changed
6) Use someone for audio work that is accessible for future updates
7) Use a cloud based internal site for employee shared access that points to the same pdfs for the public
8) Don't have a tech person oversee the job
9) Make sure you pass on institutional knowledge
10) Remember to tell all players involved when changes are made.

Sound Advice: The Community Listening Project

By 2013, approximately 228,000 people in the District of Columbia—that is about one in every three people lives at or below 200 percent of the federal poverty level. We are talking about a single mother supporting two children on just $40,000 a year or a 75-year-old grandfather living on just under $25,000 a year. And the gap between people with serious money and no money is growing.
Too often the people who are most affected by programs to address poverty are not really heard. A project sponsored by the Consortium of Legal Services Providers sought to change that by asking over 700 low-income DC residents about their problems. What people said about their lives and the problems they face has just been released in a new report called “The CommunityListeningProject.” Here with me to talk about understanding the high cost of being poor in the District of Columbia are: Patty Mullahy Fugere, the Executive Director of the Legal Clinic for the Homeless; Faith Mullen, AssistantClinical Professor at The Catholic University of America, one of the authors of the report; and Kristi Mathews, Grass Roots Advocacy Coordinator at the Legal Clinic for the Homeless

This case study video focuses on Anglo American’s Head of Legal, Kevin Lester, of their South African operations, who speaks to Nicola Stott, Global Managing Director of Exigent. During this video, he talks about how he came on board and changed the legal department to provide added value. He called it: 'Change the Way of Thinking'. By including partnering with Exigent, Lester, over six years, reduced Anglo's costs by more than 50% (not adjusted for inflation).
In this video case study interview, Kevin covers:
• Why Anglo American needed to restructure the whole of their legal set up and offering in its South African organization.
• The challenge of bringing multiple legal departments together to deliver a cohesive service.
• Which is best, evolution vs revolution; and how to introduce an LPO into an organization.
• How they looked at themselves as an internal service provider and developed a new approach.
• How he reduced the number of their external legal providers and extracted better value from the remaining providers. With his panel of new law firms, how he went about defining a set of standards to use on their deliveries to Anglo American. What they were to put on their invoice; what they were able to bill for and a stronger agreement contract.
• How he went about analyzing their work for cost-efficiency; getting the right people, with the right skills, doing the right work.
• Changing processes to suit the type of work needed. Sharing actions between partners and law firms more effectively.
• Why technology is not the only solution.
• How Exigent formed part of the winning team.

The OxfordInternetInstitute is excited to welcome ProfessorKaren Yeung and Professor Timothy Endicott for the OII Colloquia talk "What's wrong with using machine learning to personalise law?". The event is followed by a short drinks reception.
In the legal services industry, automation and the power of machine learning has been transforming legal practice, by automating tasks that had previously been highly labour intensive and typically undertaken by junior lawyers, such as document management, legal discovery and due diligence. Although there is increasing concern about how these digital transformations will affect the job market for lawyers, and for legal services more generally, less attention has been given to the way in which machine learning might be used to ‘personalise’ the law. In particular, several legal scholars claim that the data-driven techniques used by commercial providers such as Amazon and Google to personalise the user’s experience (whether in the provision of shopping recommendations or responses to search queries) could also be used to ‘personalise’ the law. In this paper, we consider the claims made by those who believe that such a move would enhance the administration of contemporary legal systems. In so doing, we offer our preliminary thoughts, suggesting that these proposals are not merely morally problematic, but – if implemented – might fundamentally threaten the rule of law upon which the legitimacy of contemporary legal systems rests.

Triage and Expert Systems in Legal Aid: New Tools to Assist People In Need and The Advocates that Serve
By Probono Net 7/23/2014
This webinar highlights new tools and approaches that aid advocates with legal screening, triage and analysis activities, and help litigants navigate unfamiliar legal processes. We'll hear from panelists working on cutting edge projects in the nonprofit legal sector, how expert systems can enhance service delivery and support community partnerships, and tools and techniques that focus on balancing considerations rather than applying rules. Join us to hear about what's new - and what's next - in this area
Panelists:
Zach Hutchinson, Student and Research Assistant, Georgetown University Law CenterAdam Friedl, Program and Special Initiatives Manager at Pro Bono NetDonnaDougherty, Attorney-in-Charge at JASA/Legal Services for the Elderly in QueensMarc Lauritsen, President, CapstonePracticeSystemsModerator:
Liz Keith, Program Director, Pro Bono Net
How can new technologies
1. Aid advocates with legal screening, triage, and analysis
2. Help litigants navigate unfamiliar processes
3. Support community partnerships to expand access to assistance
CommunityApproaches
• Neota logic
• Drools engine
• HotDocs and A2J author guided interviews
• Drupal-based options
• HTML/Javascript
Panelist Zach Hutchinson Discusses three triage and expert systems through Georgetown Law's GULC App Program
The program partners with Pro Bono organizations and, in teams of 3-4 students, creates applications to help with a legal question or problem.
3 types of applications
• Self-help tools
• Intake/clinic assistance
• Advocacy/adjunctive
Zach presents three demos:
1. OAH benefits appeals coach: Serves as a coach to users preparing for unemployment benefit hearings at the D.C.Office of Administrative Hearings, and provides targeted guidance regarding the evidence users should present.
2. EmploymentJustice Center (EJC) Wage theft advisor: helps low income workers with wage theft claims i.e. minimum wage or overtime issues. Self-help or clinical use
3. MIDAS (MilitaryImpact of Discharge Assessment System): Helps determine veteran benefit eligibility especially with confusing discharge situations.
Benefits of using these programs: they conditionally ask questions so you don't waste time determining eligibility, and they produce reports for internal use or that can be emailed to clients
Panelists Donna Dougherty and Adam Friedl Discuss the Debt and Eviction Navigator, The DEN and how JASA empowered social workers to conduct legal screenings while visiting homebound elderly clients.
This tool is designed to:
o Help you figure out if you have a landlord-tenant issue or a consumer debt issue that should be addressed
o Provide you with resources so you can learn more about the issue and steps you can take yourself
o Connect you with legal service providers who may be able to help you take action
Future Goals:
- Incorporate e-filing
- Broaden subject areas
- Generate statistical data, analysis, and reports.
Presenter Mark Lauritsen presents choiceboxing for helping people make choices which involve competing values and perspectives.
When making decisions that involve many options, considerations, varying degrees of importance, and disagreements about relative importance, creating a choicebox can break down the complexity and help make complicated decisions.
